ISO/TS 20224-5 is the fifth part of a multi-series of documents that specifies the real-time polymerase chain reaction method for the qualitative detection of goat-specific DNA derived from food and feed. It requires the extraction of an adequate amount of PCR amplifiable DNA from the relevant matrix and can be applied to the detection of goat material derived from the goat.
ISO/TS 20224-5 on molecular biomarker analysis is relevant to:
Molecular biomarkers play a vital role in highlighting the relationship between various environmental agents and human biology that helps modern scientists better understand biological processes and study diseases.
ISO/TS 20224-5 provides a real-time PCR analytical method for the identification of goat-specific DNA present in the ingredients of food and feed with combination of different techniques. Ultimately, the analysis helps users avoid any potential risks to human health and safety through potential contamination and adulteration of food.
Through the requirements provided under ISO/TS 20224-5, manufacturers of animal-based food, scientists and quality and food testing laboratories can standardise the detection, identification, and quantification of DNA from animal species. As a result, ISO/TS 20224-5 can help you avoid fraudulent adulteration of meat in food and feed that could threaten both public safety and commerce. As a result, consumer reliability and confidence in the end-product can be optimised.
